Portolobo Trigo is a refreshing blonde Weissbier characterized by a prominent grainy cereal character derived from a high percentage of raw wheat. Its aromatic profile is defined by the classic interplay of ripe banana and spicy clove, uniquely enhanced by bright orange notes that add a citrusy lift. On the palate, the soft, doughy wheat flavors are supported by a light Pilsner malt sweetness and a subtle citrus zest. The high carbonation and raw wheat contribute to a remarkably fluffy, creamy mouthfeel, leading into a dry, crisp finish that emphasizes its refreshing nature and vibrant fruit-forward character.
